Does the paper also talk about proper dosages if one wants to supplement with these vitamins? I know it says 4000 UI for vitamin D but don't see any mention for dosages of vitamin K.

10 IU D3 : 2 mcg+ MK-4. Vitamin K2 MK-4 becomes active at 1.5 milligrams, with some taking 5-9 mg daily: https://examine.com/supplements/vitamin-k/.

AOR Ortho-Core has many of these and is especially great when combined with Life Extension D + K and Doctor's Best High Absorption Magnesium.
